Trusted bath resealing in Mersham

Mersham: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long will it take?

Typically a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How long before I can shower?

Usually after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.

Why does my sealant keep splitting?

Generally because the bath or tray moves. We seal baths full of water.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How we handle bath resealing in Mersham

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Failed sealant lets water get where it shouldn’t, and resealing puts a stop to that. Our repair technicians work on kitchen worktops & sinks, shower trays & enclosures and basins & vanity units, and people most often call us about a messy previous reseal and unsealed corners.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Mersham

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Is resealing worth it?

Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It soon peels, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Air the room after use
  • Wipe the joints dry after use
  • Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
  • Ventilate the bathroom well

Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.

Black mould in sealant is not just unsightly; it shows moisture is getting in. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.

Signs you need bath resealing in Mersham

Joints split if the bath or tray moves, frequently because it was sealed with the bath empty.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Stained silicone
  • Gaps in the seal
  • Silicone smeared on tiles
  • Damp near the bath

Repairs by material

Sinks and worktops

Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We cut out all of the old sealant.
  2. Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
  3. Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
  5. We apply fresh mould-resistant silicone and tool a neat bead.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
